Accidentally deleted config.php in production site. Help!

Post by deepsoul »

Please help!

I have quite stupidly deleted the config.php in a production site that was running CMS 0.13.

How I did that was by uploading a config.php for another script into the wrong directory/folder.

Is there anyway I can reconstruct a config file that will work. Presumably it contains the database info and info about paths and the php environment and stuff like that. I should add, I'm not tooo technical!!!

PS, I know... I should have had an entire backup.

Help most welcome!

Thanks, Daniel

extract the config.php from the CMS 0.1.3 .tar.gz or .zip file, edit it, and re-upload.

Phew, I actually found a backup after all - all restored to former glory,  thanks for your suggestion though. Amazing how fast you came through with a response, a good reflection on cmsms community. Thank you
